Lol seems the 'experts' are wrong again

How so?

Looks like the springs are much newer than the dampers which suggests they have been changed so it was a cheap lowering job.

They look like standard black springs, more than likley it's failed the mot due to a snapped rear spring and they've been replaced with supplex oem equivalent

Also, his question wasn't how its been lowered, simply if it's lowered or not.

If it helps these are the Z4 e85 ride heights from an on-line workshop manual https://workshop-manuals.com/bmw/z_seri ... eight_e85/

Anybody know the spring colour codes? I have still never found a BMW document listing them, lots of posts, lots of conjecture but nothing definitive.

Hard to say, ive looked at the pic a few times. If it has been dropped its only marginal.

I think it’s definitely lowered in my opinion

With just 16mm difference between standard and sport and a variation of +/- 10mm judging from an image requires super-human powers. Come on OP put us out of our misery, what's the tape measure say?

No, bottom of rim to the highest point of the arch.
